I had an inordinate amount of fun this weekend in Warcraft. I’d been on a WoW break for some time, due to work pressure and general meh-ness. I played some Red Dead Redemption, and levelled a Priest/Knight to 21/20 in Runes of Magic, but otherwise I hadn’t done a lot of gaming.
I heard that a good friend (Hi, Raz!) had come back to Warcraft, so I transferred my new-80 Paladin back to my original home server and set about gearing her up for ” friends” runs and 10 mans. Raz, Kaz and Miz were kind enough to let me experiment with healing for the first time on several runs, which astonished me with how easy and smooth it was to do. And then we realised that the instances had been set to normal, so we went back and did them again on heroic. lol…
It was fun. It was different, which is what I really need, and it was genuinely fun. I let people die several times when things got manic (sorry Kaz and the little pug mage!) but overall it was great. I was in greens, and had virtually no mana to speak of, so it was slow. I know I was probably overhealing, which didn’t help the mana issue. But I did enjoy it, very much.
And afterwards, I was kitted out in crafted purplez and blues through the immense generosity of friends. Thank you all for the time and effort and all of the titansteel and other mats…I promise to grind until I pay you back!
A good weekend, overall. It’s nice to rediscover a love for the game.
Baby got heals!
Playing paladin tank-healer is like driving a truck, you don’t need to have PhD to do that, but you have power in your hands and alot depends on how you use it.
I love it so much.
Btw, I am back as well… Still don’t have idea what to do in-game – got into rp crowd, we’ll see how it will work.
